first few records i've heard by him fit right in there for sure. turtle's navel is gorgeous.
― tylerw, Friday, 1 May 2015 18:15 (nine years ago) link
I started the day off with the Nathan Salsburg and Jim Elkington duets record on Tompkins Square and just kind impulsively went for Turtle's Navel afterwords and have had it and It Takes A Year on repeat ever since.
Good stuff.

Sleeve, seems they will only be available individually from the artits "at a later date", at least the vinyl. I think you have to get the set itself from Three Lobed.
― grandavis, Monday, 4 May 2015 16:56 (nine years ago) link
heh heh, split payment option though! cory is nothing if not considerate...
― tylerw, Monday, 4 May 2015 16:57 (nine years ago) link
UMS, you didn't negotiate ILM time with your new employer? (Also, congrats on the new job, I hope it is a good one for you.) Gonna check the "Silent Night" out!
― grandavis, Monday, 4 May 2015 16:57 (nine years ago) link
Here is a nice low-key Mike & Cara Gangloff release you can stream. Usual stuff from them, very pleasant on a Monday afternoon:

"Silent Night" sounding great UMS, slow and stately, just how I like it.
― grandavis, Monday, 4 May 2015 17:37 (nine years ago) link
Mr. Bishop was fabulous in PDX, and his set had virtually no overlap with the NYCtaper set above. Plus, he had Unrock releases for super cheap ($15)!

new dbh album sounding v good so far
― ogmor, Friday, 8 May 2015 14:22 (nine years ago) link
oooohh! cool what label put it out?
― kurt kobaïan (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 8 May 2015 14:55 (nine years ago) link
thread recordings. as with the last album, first release on the label. CD, no vinyl, on spotify too.
"Even if you live in a bog you can still have a good dance sometimes."
indeed.

Pretty nice new Chuck Johnson tune from upcoming Scissor Tail release. All acoustic guitar, no electronics etc.
https://scissortail.bandcamp.com/album/blood-moon-boulder
― grandavis, Friday, 8 May 2015 15:53 (nine years ago) link
man, really good year so far for solo acoustic records -- bishop, bachman, johnson, dorji -- all fantastic. gotta check out the new dbh.
― tylerw, Friday, 8 May 2015 15:58 (nine years ago) link
Gotta get that Bachman. Probably wait till I get to see him live, but may not be able to wait that long as I have no idea when he will swing through again. I am going to have trouble not sending Three Lobed all my money this year.
― grandavis, Friday, 8 May 2015 16:03 (nine years ago) link
waiting on mine in the mail... excited. the track what jeff conklin played on WFMU a few weeks ago is stellar
― global tetrahedron, Friday, 8 May 2015 16:25 (nine years ago) link
Yeah, that track is pretty epic.
― grandavis, Friday, 8 May 2015 16:26 (nine years ago) link
the two-parter that opens side 2 is incredible -- probably his most gorgeous tune yet.

Freeform Freakout Foxy Podcast featuring Grass Tops records:
https://soundcloud.com/free-form-freakout/fffoxy-podcast-57-in-studio-session-with-kyle-fosburgh-christoph-bruhn-of-grass-tops-recording
got to play a show with Christoph Bruhn on Wednesday...he's amazing and Nic Garcia was on the bill as well
also on the bill was John Zuma Saint Pelvyn, who I was not aware of! Anyway, he's on the more deconstructed side of things (weirder Bishop stuff and Orcutt), but really cool....he has a theramin that he uses while he's playing guitar, he'll be playing, then stick his headstock close to the theramin to get it to squeal while he's playing....anyway easier to see than to explain:

^ was a cool set
i think the DBH track was my favorite on IA7
― global tetrahedron, Friday, 8 May 2015 17:03 (nine years ago) link
and this new one is really great... scratching a certain itch i've had lately, been looking for some upbeat but wistful acoustic stuff. this is perfect
― global tetrahedron, Friday, 8 May 2015 17:10 (nine years ago) link
does DBH play nylon string guitars? can't quite tell i think so though
― kurt kobaïan (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 8 May 2015 19:49 (nine years ago) link
stop the presses, there is a Wilburn Burchette reissue!

― sleeve, Friday, 8 May 2015 22:18 (nine years ago) link
afaik dbh started out on electric but yes mostly classical guitar now. he has a great ear, a composerly touch and is v good at lush & idiomatic arrangements of all sorts of source material on his beloved nylon-stringed guitar. if you're curious he has videos spread over a few youtube accounts playing a lot of popish stuff like blondie, hendrix, kate bush, whitney houston, reo speedwagon... this is one of them https://youtu.be/ZhvFg64_Gis
― ogmor, Monday, 11 May 2015 14:38 (nine years ago) link
there's also a dbh tab book out there which was put together without his knowledge by some local superfan, no idea if it's available anywhere but it's v satisfying stuff to play
― ogmor, Monday, 11 May 2015 14:43 (nine years ago) link
New Bachman streaming now on NPR's First Listen:http://www.npr.org/2015/05/10/404239750/first-listen-daniel-bachman-river(New O'Rourke on there too)
― dow, Monday, 11 May 2015 14:47 (nine years ago) link
Whoa, REO Speedwagon. Also, an embarrassment of riches on NPR this week music-wise. Kind of crazy.
― grandavis, Monday, 11 May 2015 15:41 (nine years ago) link
REO Speedwagon are playing a song with Imagine Dragons on some late night show lmao
New Bachman is good... I'm still not sold on the whole thing (haven't had the time to really let it sink in) but the first track is a stunner. Anybody else notice a little gain/clipping throughout? I know string buzz is a big part of his sound (which I dig) but the digital and vinyl both have it I think
― global tetrahedron, Monday, 11 May 2015 15:50 (nine years ago) link
Haven't checked the Bachman stream yet, but that would be a big bummer if there is clipping. I am fully into string buzzing though.
― grandavis, Monday, 11 May 2015 16:12 (nine years ago) link
Now I'm craving an album consisting only of string buzzing and fingers moving across the fretboard.
― moans and feedback (Dinsdale), Monday, 11 May 2015 19:22 (nine years ago) link
pretty sure there's a Jandek album like that
(j/k, I love Jandek)
― sleeve, Tuesday, 12 May 2015 01:38 (nine years ago) link
I sure love the early Six Organs where he hammers the hell out of those low strings and generates all kinds of string buzz. Large chunks of Tashi Dorji essentially sound like exercises in using string buzz and sliding and all kinds of incidental guitar sounds to create very successful pieces. It is supremely satisfying to me.
― grandavis, Tuesday, 12 May 2015 13:31 (nine years ago) link
Nice track from the upcoming Andrew Weathers Ensemble record. This guy is pretty interesting to me, though I haven't heard a ton. Have generally liked everything I have checked out though.

cool... this was my bandcamp discovery of the week: https://ruvennunez.bandcamp.com/album/evening-prayerlong, meditative loop-y electric guitar things. i like it.
― tylerw, Friday, 15 May 2015 16:11 (nine years ago) link
Nice, will check that out. Jamming the Bachman stream on NPR before it goes down right now. So good.
― grandavis, Friday, 15 May 2015 16:32 (nine years ago) link
looks like i'm getting close on getting chuck johnson a show in st paul :) :) :)
― kurt kobaïan (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 15 May 2015 16:57 (nine years ago) link
Nice!
― grandavis, Friday, 15 May 2015 17:05 (nine years ago) link
nice, would love it if he came out here, but not holding my breath...
― tylerw, Friday, 15 May 2015 17:05 (nine years ago) link
this stuff is incredibly awesome. from what i can tell this guy generally plays in just intonation but this is an album on weissenborn with heavy improv elements + tape delay/heavy FX. i've been looking for music like this:
https://chrisrainier.bandcamp.com/
― global tetrahedron, Friday, 15 May 2015 17:33 (nine years ago) link
Oh man, that basically sounds like my shit right there! Thanks!
― grandavis, Friday, 15 May 2015 17:35 (nine years ago) link
could've sworn someone posted that on the last thread... or somewhere... maybe markus from dying for bad music was talking about it. anyway, hadn't listened but it looks great!
― tylerw, Friday, 15 May 2015 17:37 (nine years ago) link
ya i found it from marcus
― global tetrahedron, Friday, 15 May 2015 17:37 (nine years ago) link
ah ok, knew it looked familiar! dude has his ear to the ground...wsa just checking out this forthcoming thing he has. don't think this will actually be the cover but lol. https://ci6.googleusercontent.com/proxy/tueByzdAC4-CxncOAu27fiFeIZ4v79FcbKklvPodRt0OL2zTImKlpPeF7e4uRDVQx3p_tI9Hmf-2o4okmK6Sc56d6UYXxFXGFrbWZCgMHy6zId96oz39i0NSiUdeNxyIjmIFaIz0pNmfy1ndrJ93TA=s0-d-e1-ft#http://dyingforbadmusic.com/img/cmsimage.php/1024x800/81d8eac0584c1cde0c339fd097287bc3.jpg

Yeah man, Marcus rules. Have trouble keeping up, but try to check out what he is throwing as much as I can.
